1. Abstract
-
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in the Internet community. In particular, it describes objects used for managing ATM-based interfaces, devices, networks and services.
This memo replaces RFC 1695 [24]. Changes relative to RFC 1695 are summarized in the MIB module's REVISION clause.
Textual Conventions used in this MIB are defined in [6] and [19].
2. The SNMP Network Management Framework
-
The SNMP Management Framework presently consists of five major components:
0 An overall architecture, described in RFC 2271 [1]. 0 Mechanisms for describing and naming objects and events for the purpose of management. The first version of this Structure of Management Information (SMI) is called SMIv1 and described in STD 16, RFC 1155 [2], STD 16, RFC 1212 [3] and RFC 1215 [4]. The second version, called SMIv2, is described in RFC 1902 [5], RFC 1903 [6] and RFC 1904 [7]. 0 Message protocols for transferring management information. The first version of the SNMP message protocol is called SNMPv1 and described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [8]. A second version of the SNMP message protocol, which is not an Internet standards track protocol, is called SNMPv2c and described in RFC 1901 [9] and RFC 1906 [10].
-
The third version of the message protocol is called SNMPv3 and described in RFC 1906 [10], RFC 2272 [11] and RFC 2274 [12].
0 Protocol operations for accessing management information. The first set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in STD 15, RFC 1157 [8]. A second set of protocol operations and associated PDU formats is described in RFC 1905 [13]. 0 A set of fundamental applications described in RFC 2273 [14] and the view-based access control mechanism described in RFC 2275 [15].Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base or MIB. Objects in the MIB are defined using the mechanisms defined in the SMI.
This memo specifies a MIB module that is compliant to the SMIv2. A MIB conforming to the SMIv1 can be produced through the appropriate translations. The resulting translated MIB must be semantically equivalent, except where objects or events are omitted because no translation is possible (e.g., use of Counter64). Some machine readable information in SMIv2 will be converted into textual descriptions in SMIv1 during the translation process. However, this loss of machine readable information is not considered to change the semantics of the MIB.

3. ATM Terminology
-
Some basic ATM terminologies are described in this section to facilitate defining the ATM managed objects.
3.1. VCL/VPL and VCC/VPC
-
There are two distinct types of ATM virtual connections: Virtual Channel Connections (VCCs) and Virtual Path Connection (VPCs). As shown in Figures 1 and 2, ATM virtual connections consist of concatenated series of virtual links which forms a path between two end points, with each concatenation occurring at an ATM switch. Virtual links of VCCs are called Virtual Channel Links (VCLs). Virtual links of VPCs are called Virtual Path Links (VPLs). The VCI and VPI fields in the ATM cell header associate each cell of a VCC with a particular VCL over a given physical link. The VPI field in the ATM cell header associates each cell of a VPC with a particular VPL over a given physical link. Switches route cells between VCLs (or VPLs) via a cross-connect function according to the cells' VCI/VPI (or VPI) values.
<-----------------------VCC--------------------------> ------------ ----------- |ATM | |ATM | |X-Connect | |X-Connect | VCL1 |Point | VCL2 |Point | VCL3 O---------|----X-----|-------|-----|----X-----|-------O | | | | ------------ ------------ ATM Switch ATM Switch-

Virtual Path Connection

A single ATM end-system or switch does not support the whole end-to- end span of a VCC (or VPC). Rather, multiple ATM end-systems and/or switches each support one piece of the VCC (or VPC). That is, each ATM end-system (or ATM switch) at one end of the VCC/VPC supports its end of the VCC/VPC plus the VCL or VPL on its external interface, and each switch through which the VCC/VPC passes supports the pair of VCLs/VPLs on its external interfaces as well as the cross-connection of those VCLs/VPLs. Thus, the end-to-end management of a VCC or VPC is achieved only by appropriate management of its individual pieces in combination.
Note that for management purposes, an ATM network may be viewed as a large distributed switch by hiding all the network's internal connectivity as being internal to the distributed switch (as shown in Figure 2a). This model may for example be used for Customer Network Management (CNM) purposes.

-
A VCC has a set of traffic characteristics (i.e., bandwidth parameters, service category parameters, etc.). VCLs inherit their traffic characteristics from the VCC of which they are a part. VCCs are bi-directional by definition. However, the traffic parameters in the two directions of a connection can be symmetric or asymmetric, i.e., the two directions can have the same or different traffic flows. A uni-directional traffic flow across a VCC is achieved by assigning a zero bandwidth in one direction. Note that in addition to the bandwidth required by the user traffic flow, bandwidth is also required for OAM cell flows, even for the zero-bandwidth direction of a uni-directional connection. These same principles apply to VPCs.
-
3.2. PVC, SVC and Soft PVC
-
A Permanent Virtual Connection (PVC) is a provisioned VCC or VPC. A Switched Virtual Connection (SVC) is a switched VCC or VPC that is set up in real-time via call set-up signaling procedures. A PVC (or an SVC) can be a point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, or multipoint- to-multipoint VCC or VPC. A Soft PVC is a connection of which portions are switched, while other portions are permanent (see Figure 3 and [22]).

3.3. Traffic Management Parameters
3.3.1. Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping Parameters
-
In order to allocate resources fairly among different users, some networks police traffic at resource access points. The traffic enforcement or policing taken at a UNI is called Usage Parameter Control (UPC) and is conceptually activated on an incoming VCL or VPL as shown in Figure 4. The use of the traffic enforcer at the ingress of the connection is to make sure that the user traffic does not exceed the negotiated traffic parameters such as the peak cell rate associated with a specific traffic descriptor type.
---------- ---------- UNI | ATM | NNI | ATM | UNI | | switch | | | switch | | O<---|---->X(UPC) |<----|------>| (UPC)X<-----|--->O | VCL | | | VCL | | VCL | ---------- -----------
-

-
In addition, traffic shaping may be performed on an outgoing VPL or VCL at a given ATM interface. The function of the ATM traffic shaper, conceptually either at the source or an egress point of the connection, is to smooth the outgoing cell traffic inter-arrival time. If policing or shaping is not performed then the policing or shaping algorithm is not activated.
-
3.3.2. Cell Loss Priority
-
To prioritize traffic during resource congestion, ATM cells are assigned one of the two types of Cell Loss Priority (CLP), CLP=0 and CLP=1. ATM cells with CLP=0 have a higher priority in regard to cell loss than ATM cells with CLP=1. Therefore, during resource congestions, CLP=1 cells are dropped before any CLP=0 cell is dropped.
3.3.3. QoS Class
-
RFC1695 specified that one of a number of Quality of Service (QoS) classes is assigned to a VCC or VPC by associating the object atmTrafficQoSClass with each VCL or VPL. However, new insights in ATM traffic management have caused this object to be deprecated.
3.3.4. Service Category
-
Replacing QoS Class, VPLs and VCLs are qualified in terms of their service category (atmServiceCategory). When properly configured, VCLs (or VPLs) concatenated to form a VCC (or VPC) will all have the same service category class as that of the VCC (or VPC).
3.4. Max Active and Max Current VPI and VCI Bits
-
A manager may wish to configure the maximum number of VPI and VCI bits that can be used to identify VPIs and VCIs on a given ATM interface. This value can be less than or equal to the maximum number of bits supported by the interface hardware, and is referred to in the MIB as the Max Active VPI Bits and Max Active VCI Bits.
However, a manager may not be able to configure the Max Active Bits on both ends of an ATM link. For example, the manager may not be allowed write access to the peer's MIB, or there may be hardware limitations on the peer device. Therefore, the two ATM devices may use ILMI to negotiate "Max Current" VPI and VCI bits, which is the maximum number of bits that both interfaces are willing to support. This is illustrated in Figure 5. The relationship between the different parameters is illustrated in Figure 6. Note that if ILMI negotiation is not supported, then the devices have no choice but to use the configured Max Active bits, and assume that it has been configured to the same value on both ends of the link.
+--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | ATM | IF a IF b | ATM | IF c IF d | ATM | | Device |--------------| Device |--------------| Device | +--------+ +--------+ +--------+ IF a: Max Active VPI Bits = 6 (configured) Max Current VPI Bits = 6 (negotiated) IF b: Max Active VPI Bits = 8 (configured) Max Current VPI Bits = 6 (negotiated) IF c: Max Active VPI Bits = 8 (configured) Max Current VPI Bits = 8 (negotiated) IF d: Max Active VPI Bits = 8 (configured) Max Current VPI Bits = 8 (negotiated)-
-
(between IF a and IF b, the minimum of the two configured
"Max Active VPI Bits" is 6, so both interfaces set their "Max Current VPI Bits" to 6. Since IF c and IF d both are configured with "Max Active VPI Bits" of 8, they set their "Max Current VPI Bits" to 8.)

4. Overview
-
ATM management objects are used to manage ATM interfaces, ATM virtual links, ATM cross-connects, AAL5 entities and AAL5 connections supported by ATM hosts, ATM switches and ATM networks. This section provides an overview and background of how to use this MIB and other potential MIBs for this purpose.
The purpose of this memo is primarily to manage ATM PVCs. ATM SVCs are also represented by the management information in this MIB. However, full management of SVCs may require additional capabilities which are beyond the scope of this memo.
4.1. Background
-
In addition to the MIB module defined in this memo, other MIB modules are necessary to manage ATM interfaces, links and cross-connects. Examples include MIB II for general system and interface management [16][17], the DS3 or SONET MIBs for management of physical interfaces, and, as appropriate, MIB modules for applications that make use of ATM, such as SMDS. These MIB modules are outside the scope of this specification.
The current specification of this ATM MIB is based on SNMPv2-SMI.
4.2. Structure of the MIB
-
The managed ATM objects are arranged into the following tables:
(1) ATM interface configuration table (2) ATM interface DS3 PLCP and TC sublayer tables (3) ATM traffic parameter table (4) ATM interface virtual link (VPL/VCL) configuration tables (5) ATM VP/VC cross-connect tables (6) AAL5 connection performance statistics tableNote that, managed objects for activation/deactivation of OAM cell flows and ATM traps notifying virtual connection or virtual link failures are outside the scope of this memo.
4.3. ATM Interface Configuration Table
-
This table contains information on ATM cell layer configuration of local ATM interfaces on an ATM device in addition to the information on such interfaces contained in the ifTable.
4.4. ATM Interface DS3 PLCP and TC Layer Tables
-
These tables provide performance statistics of the DS3 PLCP and TC sublayer of local ATM interfaces on a managed ATM device. DS3 PLCP and TC sublayer are currently used to carry ATM cells respectively over DS3 and SONET transmission paths.
4.5. ATM Virtual Link and Cross-Connect Tables
-
ATM virtual link and cross-connect tables model bi-directional ATM virtual links and ATM cross-connects. The ATM VP/VC link tables are implemented in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network. The ATM switch and ATM network also implement the ATM VP/VC cross-connect tables. Both link and cross-connect tables are implemented in a carrier's network for Customer Network Management (CNM) purposes.
The ATM virtual link tables are used to create, delete or modify ATM virtual links in an ATM host, ATM switch and ATM network. ATM virtual link tables along with the cross-connect tables are used to create, delete or modify ATM cross-connects in an ATM switch or ATM network (e.g., for CNM purposes).
For a PVC, the cross-connect between two VPLs is represented in the atmVpCrossConnectTable of the ATM-MIB, indexed by the atmVplCrossConnectIdentifier values for the two VPLs, and the cross- rconnect between two VCLs is represented in the atmVcCrossConnectTable of the ATM-MIB, indexed by the atmVclCrossConnectIdentifier values for the two VCLs.
For an SVC or Soft PVC the VPL and VCL tables defined in this memo are used. Hoewever, for an SVC or Soft PVC the cross-connect between two VPLs is represented in the atmSvcVpCrossConnectTable of the ATM2-MIB, indexed by the atmVplCrossConnectIdentifier values for the two VPLs, and the cross-connect between two VCLs is represented in the atmSvcVcCrossConnectTable of the ATM2-MIB, indexed by the atmVclCrossConnectIdentifier values for the two VCLs.
Note: The ATM2-MIB module was being defined in a separate memo at the time of this publication. Please consult the RFC directory for an exact reference.
5. Application of MIB II to ATM
5.1. The System Group
-
For the purposes of the sysServices object in the System Group of MIB II [16], ATM is a data link layer protocol. Thus, for ATM switches and ATM networks, sysServices will have the value "2".
5.2. The Interface Group
-
The Interfaces Group of MIB II defines generic managed objects for managing interfaces. This memo contains the media-specific extensions to the Interfaces Group for managing ATM interfaces.
This memo assumes the interpretation of the Interfaces Group to be in accordance with [17] which states that the interfaces table (ifTable) contains information on the managed resource's interfaces and that each sub-layer below the internetwork layer of a network interface is considered an interface. Thus, the ATM cell layer interface is represented as an entry in the ifTable. This entry is concerned with the ATM cell layer as a whole, and not with individual virtual connections which are managed via the ATM-specific managed objects specified in this memo. The inter-relation of entries in the ifTable is defined by Interfaces Stack Group defined in [17].
5.2.1. Support of the ATM Cell Layer by ifTable
-
Some specific interpretations of ifTable for the ATM cell layer follow.
Object Use for the generic ATM layer ====== ============================= ifIndex Each ATM port is represented by an ifEntry. ifDescr Description of the ATM interface. ifType The value that is allocated for ATM is 37. ifSpeed The total bandwidth in bits per second for use by the ATM layer. ifPhysAddress The interface's address at the ATM protocol sublayer; the ATM address which would be used as the value of the Called Party Address Information Element (IE) of a signalling message for a connection which either: - would terminate at this interface, or - for which the Called Party Address IE would need to be replaced by the Called Party SubAddress IE before the message was forwarded to any other interface. For an interface on which signalling is not supported, then the interface does not necessarily have an address, but if it does, then ifPhysAddress is the address which would be used as above in the event that signalling were supported. If the interface has multiple such addresses, then ifPhysAddress is its primary address. If the interface has no addresses, then ifPhysAddress is an octet string of zero length. Address encoding is as per [20]. Note that addresses assigned for purposes other than those listed above (e.g., an address associated with the service provider side of a public network UNI) may be represented through atmInterfaceSubscrAddress. ifAdminStatus See [17]. ifOperStatus Assumes the value down(2) if the ATM cell layer is down. ifLastChange See [17]. ifInOctets The number of received octets over the interface, i.e., the number of received, assigned cells multiplied by 53. ifOutOctets The number of transmitted octets over the interface, i.e., the number of transmitted, assigned cells multiplied by 53. ifInErrors The number of cells dropped due to uncorrectable HEC errors.ifInUnknownProtos The number of received cells discarded during cell

ifOutErrors See [17]. ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the interface or an octet string of zero length. ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2). ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2). ifHighSpeed See [17]. ifHCInOctets The 64-bit version of ifInOctets; supported if required by the compliance statements in [17]. ifHCOutOctets The 64-bit version of ifOutOctets; supported if required by the compliance statements in [17]. ifAlias The non-volatile 'alias' name for the interface as specified by a network manager.
6. Support of the AAL3/4 Based Interfaces
-
For the management of AAL3/4 CPCS layer, see [18].
7. Support of the AAL5 Managed Objects
-
Support of AAL5 managed objects in an ATM switch and ATM host are described below.
7.1. Managing AAL5 in a Switch
-
Managing AAL5 in a switch involves:
-
(1) performance management of an AAL5 entity as
-
an internal resource in a switch
-
(2) performance management of AAL5 per virtual connection
-
AAL5 in a switch is modeled as shown in Figure 7 and 8. AAL5 will be managed in a switch for only those virtual connections that carry AAL5 and are terminated at the AAL5 entity in the switch. Note that, the virtual channels within the ATM UNIs carrying AAL5 will be switched by the ATM switching fabric (termed as ATM Entity in the figure) to the virtual channels on a proprietary internal interface associated with the AAL5 process (termed as AAL5 Entity in the figure). Therefore, performance management of the AAL5 resource in the switch will be modeled using the ifTable through an internal (pseudo-ATM) virtual interface and the AAL5 performance management per virtual connection will be supported using an additional AAL5 connection table in the ATM MIB. The association between the AAL5 virtual link at the proprietary virtual, internal interface and the ATM virtual link at the ATM interface will be derived from the virtual channel cross-connect table and the virtual channel link table in the ATM MIB. Note that for the proprietary virtual interface the traffic transmit and receive conventions in the virtual channel link table are as follows:
Transmitting traffic: ATM Entity ---> AAL5 Entity Receiving traffic: ATM Entity <--- AAL5 Entity ___________________________ | | | ============= | | | AAL5 | | | | Entity | | | ============= | | | | | -----Prop.

7.2. Managing AAL5 in a Host
-
Managing AAL5 in a host involves managing the AAL5 sublayer interface as shown in Figure 9 and 10. The AAL5 sublayer is stacked directly over the ATM sublayer. The ifTable is applied to the AAL5 sublayer as defined in Section 10.3.

7.3. Support of AAL5 by ifTable
-
The AAL5 entity in an ATM device (e.g., switch or host) is managed using the ifTable. There are additional counters specified for AAL5 than those specified in the ATM B-ICI document [21]. Specific interpretations of ifTable for the AAL5 CPCS layer are as follows.
Object Use for AAL5 CPCS layer entity ====== ============================== ifIndex Each AAL5 entity is represented by an ifEntry. ifDescr Description of the AAL5 entity. ifType The value that is allocated for AAL5 is 49. ifMtu Set to the largest PDU size for the AAL5 CPCS layer that can be processed by the AAL5 entity. ifSpeed Set to 0. ifPhysAddress An octet string of zero length. ifAdminStatus See [17]. ifOperStatus Assumes the value down(2) if the AAL5 layer is down. ifLastChange See [17]. ifInOctets The number of received AAL5 CPCS PDU octets. ifOutOctets The number of AAL5 CPCS PDU octets transmitted. ifInUcastPkts The number of received AAL5 CPCS PDUs passed to a higher-layer. ifOutUcastPkts The number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs received from a higher-layer for transmission. [Note: The number of AAL5 PDUs actually transmitted is the number received from a higher-layer for transmission minus any which are counted by ifOutErrors and ifOutDiscards.] ifInErrors Number of errored AAL5 CPCS PDUs received. The types of errors counted include CRC-32 errors, SAR time-out errors, and oversized SDU errors.ifInUnknownProtos Set to 0.
ifInDiscards Number of received AAL5 CPCS PDUs discarded. Possible reason may be input buffer overflow. ifOutErrors Number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs that could not be transmitted due to errors. ifOutDiscards Number of AAL5 CPCS PDUs received for transmission that are discarded. Possible reason may be output buffer overflow. ifInMulticastPkts Set to 0. ifInBroadcastPkts Set to 0.ifOutMulticastPkts Set to 0.
ifOutBroadcastPkts Set to 0.
ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the AAL5 entity or an octet string of zero length. ifHighSpeed Set to 0.ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2).
ifPromiscuousMode Set to false(2).
ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2). ifAlias The non-volatile 'alias' name for the interface as specified by a network manager.
7.4. Support of Proprietary Virtual Interface by ifTable
-
Specific interpretations of ifTable for the proprietary virtual, internal interface associated with an AAL5 entity in an ATM switch are as follows.
Object Use for proprietary virtual, internal interface associated with AAL entities ====== =============================================== ifIndex Each proprietary virtual, internal interface associated with AAL entities is represented by an ifEntry. ifDescr Description of the proprietary virtual, internal interface associated with AAL entities. ifType The value that is allocated for proprietary virtual, internal interface is 53. ifSpeed See [17]. Set to 0 if the speed is not known. ifPhysAddress See [17]. An octet string of zero length if no address is used for this interface. ifAdminStatus See [17]. ifOperStatus See [17]. ifLastChange See [17]. ifName Textual name (unique on this system) of the interface or an octet string of zero length. ifHighSpeed See [17]. Set to 0 if the speed is not known. ifConnectorPresent Set to false (2). ifLinkUpDownTrapEnable Default is disabled (2). ifAlias The non-volatile 'alias' name for the interface as specified by a network manager.
7.5. AAL5 Connection Performance Statistics Table
-
An AAL5 connection table is used to provide AAL5 performance information for each AAL5 virtual connection that is terminated at the AAL5 entity contained within an ATM switch or host.
8. ILMI MIBs and the ATM Managed Objects
-
The ILMI MIBs are specified by the ATM Forum as a set of several MIBs, all currently defined in the ILMI Specification [23]. The ILMI protocols and MIBs allow two connected ATM Interface Management Entities (IMEs) to exchange bi-directional parameters, mainly to facilitate auto-configuration between ATM peer entities. The support of the ATM management functions by the ILMI MIBs and those contained in this memo are compared in Table 1. In this table, "yes" in the "ILMI MIBs" column indicates that the management functions are supported by the ILMI MIBs. The parenthesized numbers in the "This memo" column correspond to the sets of tables enumerated in Section 6.2.
For that subset of management information which the ILMI MIBs and this memo have in common, every effort has been made to retain identical semantics and syntax, even though the MIB objects are identified using different OBJECT IDENTIFIERs.

This entry is used to model a bi-directional VPL. To create a VPL at an ATM interface, either of the following procedures are used: Negotiated VPL establishment-
-
(1) The management application creates
-
a VPL entry in the atmVplTable
by setting atmVplRowStatus to createAndWait(5). This may fail for the following reasons:
- The selected VPI value is unavailable,
- The selected VPI value is in use.
Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
reserves the VPI value on that port.
(2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
-
atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent ATM traffic parameters and the service category for receive and transmit directions of the VPL.
(2a) If no suitable row(s) in the
-
atmTrafficDescrParamTable exists,
the manager must create a new row(s)
in that table.
-
-
(2b) The manager characterizes the VPL's traffic
parameters through setting the
atmVplReceiveTrafficDescrIndex and the
-
-
-
-
atmVplTransmitTrafficDescrIndex values
in the VPL table, which point to the rows containing desired ATM traffic parameter values in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable. The agent will check the availability of resources and may refuse the request.
If the transmit and receive service categories are inconsistent, the agent should refuse the request.
(3) The manager activates the VPL by setting the
-
the atmVplRowStatus to active(1).
If this set is successful, the agent has
reserved the resources to satisfy the requested traffic parameter values and the service category for that VPL.
(4) If the VPL terminates a VPC in the ATM host
-
-
or switch, the manager turns on the atmVplAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VPL traffic flow on. Otherwise, the atmVpCrossConnectTable must be used to cross-connect the VPL to another VPL(s) in an ATM switch or network. One-Shot VPL Establishment -
A VPL may also be established in one step by a
set-request with all necessary VPL parameter
values and atmVplRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).
-
-
-
In contrast to the negotiated VPL establishment which allows for detailed error checking
(i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to particular resource acquisition failures),
the one-shot VPL establishment
performs the setup on one operation but
does not have the advantage of step-wise error checking.
-

This entry is used to model a bi-directional VCL. To create a VCL at an ATM interface, either of the following procedures are used: Negotiated VCL establishment-
-
(1) The management application creates
-
a VCL entry in the atmVclTable
by setting atmVclRowStatus to createAndWait(5). This may fail for the following reasons:
- The selected VPI/VCI values are unavailable,
- The selected VPI/VCI values are in use. Otherwise, the agent creates a row and
reserves the VPI/VCI values on that port.
(2) The manager selects an existing row(s) in the
-
atmTrafficDescrParamTable,
thereby, selecting a set of self-consistent ATM traffic parameters and the service category for receive and transmit directions of the VCL.
(2a) If no suitable row(s) in the
-
atmTrafficDescrParamTable exists,
the manager must create a new row(s)
in that table.
(2b) The manager characterizes the VCL's traffic
-
parameters through setting the atmVclReceiveTrafficDescrIndex and the atmVclTransmitTrafficDescrIndex values
in the VCL table, which point to the rows containing desired ATM traffic parameter values in the atmTrafficDescrParamTable. The agent will check the availability of resources and may refuse the request.
If the transmit and receive service categories are inconsistent, the agent should refuse the request.
-
(3) The manager activates the VCL by setting the the atmVclRowStatus to active(1) (for requirements on this activation see the description of atmVclRowStatus). If this set is successful, the agent has reserved the resources to satisfy the requested traffic parameter values and the service category for that VCL. (4) If the VCL terminates a VCC in the ATM host or switch, the manager turns on the atmVclAdminStatus to up(1) to turn the VCL traffic flow on. Otherwise, the atmVcCrossConnectTable must be used to cross-connect the VCL to another VCL(s) in an ATM switch or network. One-Shot VCL Establishment -
A VCL may also be established in one step by a
set-request with all necessary VCL parameter
values and atmVclRowStatus set to createAndGo(4).
-
-
-
In contrast to the negotiated VCL establishment which allows for detailed error checking
(i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to particular resource acquisition failures),
the one-shot VCL establishment
performs the setup on one operation but
does not have the advantage of step-wise
error checking.
-

Step-wise Procedures to set up a VP Cross-connect
-
-
-
Once the entries in the atmVplTable are created, the following procedures are used
to cross-connect the VPLs together.(1) The manager obtains a unique
-
atmVpCrossConnectIndex by reading the atmVpCrossConnectIndexNext object.
(2) Next, the manager creates a set of one
-
or more rows in the ATM VP Cross Connect
Table, one for each cross-connection between two VPLs. Each row is indexed by the ATM interface port numbers and VPI values of the two ends of that cross-connection.
This set of rows specifies the topology of the VPC cross-connect and is identified by a single value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex.
Negotiated VP Cross-Connect Establishment
(2a) The manager creates a row in this table by
-
setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to createAndWait(5). The agent checks the requested topology and the mutual sanity of the ATM traffic parameters and service categories, i.e., the row creation fails if: - the requested topology is incompatible with associated values of atmVplCastType, - the requested topology is not supported by the agent, - the traffic/service category parameter values associated with the requested row are incompatible with those of already existing rows for this VP cross-connect. [For example, for setting up a point-to-point VP cross-connect, the ATM traffic parameters in the receive direction-
-
-
of a VPL at the low end of the cross-connect must equal to the traffic parameters in the transmit direction of the other VPL at the
high end of the cross-connect,
otherwise, the row creation fails.]
The agent also checks for internal errors in building the cross-connect.
-
-
-
The atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the
corresponding atmVplTable rows are filled
in by the agent at this point.
-
-
-
(2b) The manager promotes the row in the
-
atmVpCrossConnectTable by setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus to active(1). If this set is successful, the agent has reserved the resources specified by the ATM traffic parameter and Service category values
for each direction of the VP cross-connect
in an ATM switch or network.
(3) The manager sets the
-
-
atmVpCrossConnectAdminStatus to up(1) in all
rows of this VP cross-connect to turn the
traffic flow on.
-
-
-
One-Shot VP Cross-Connect Establishment
A VP cross-connect may also be established in
one step by a set-request with all necessary parameter values and atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus
set to createAndGo(4).In contrast to the negotiated VP cross-connect establishment which allows for detailed error checking (i.e., set errors are explicitly linked to particular resource acquisition failures), the one-shot VP cross-connect establishment performs the setup on one operation but does not have the advantage of step-wise error checking.
-
VP Cross-Connect Retirement
-
A VP cross-connect identified by a particular
value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex is released by:
(1) Setting atmVpCrossConnectRowStatus of all
-
-
-
-
rows identified by this value of atmVpCrossConnectIndex to destroy(6).
The agent may release all
associated resources, and the atmVpCrossConnectIndex values in the corresponding atmVplTable row are removed.
Note that a situation when only a subset of the associated rows are deleted corresponds
to a VP topology change.
(2) After deletion of the appropriate
-
atmVpCrossConnectEntries, the manager may set atmVplRowStatus to destroy(6) the associated VPLs. The agent releases
the resources and removes the associated
rows in the atmVplTable.
-
-
VP Cross-connect Reconfiguration At the discretion of the agent, a VP cross-connect may be reconfigured by adding and/or deleting leafs to/from the VP topology as per the VP cross-connect establishment/retirement procedures.

12. Security Considerations
-
There are a number of management objects defined in this MIB that have a MAX-ACCESS clause of read-write and/or read-create. Such objects may be considered sensitive or vulnerable in some network environments. The support for SET operations in a non-secure environment without proper protection can have a negative effect on network operations.
The managed objects in this MIB contain sensitive information since, collectively, they allow tracing and influencing of virtual connections in ATM switches or networks and provide information of their traffic characteristics.
It is thus important to control even GET access to these objects and possibly to even encrypt the values of these object when sending them over the network via SNMP. Not all versions of SNMP provide features for such a secure environment.
SNMPv1 by itself is not a secure environment. Even if the network itself is secure (for example by using IPSec), even then, there is no control as to who on the secure network is allowed to access and GET/SET (read/change/create/delete) the objects in this MIB.
It is recommended that the implementers consider the security features as provided by the SNMPv3 framework. Specifically, the use of the User-based Security Model RFC 2274 [12] and the View-based Access Control Model RFC 2275 [15] is recommended.
It is then a customer/user responsibility to ensure that the SNMP entity giving access to an instance of this MIB, is properly configured to give access to the objects only to those principals (users) that have legitimate rights to indeed GET or SET (change/create/delete) them.
